The northeast corner of the complex housed the recreational hall for movies, dances, church services and town meetings for the employees. The company hired workers to mine the borax from Death Valley It contained a company office, employee headquarters, dormitory for employees, 23 room hotel, dining room, lobby and a store. The U-shaped building/complex was built in 1923-25 by the Pacific Coast Borax Company. Joe went to the Amargosa Hotel to find out about tours.

We had stopped here on our first day to Death Valley, but the tour was already in progress and we didn't want to wait.

Our first stop was at Death Valley Junction to see the Amargosa Opera House. The day was sunny instead of cloudy, which I thought would make for better pictures. The RV service company also fixed our electric front door step that goes up to create a floor in front of the passenger seat. It had stopped working a few weeks prior.Īfter a day of rest, we headed back to Death Valley National Park. We replaced the old TV for a new flat screen TV since he had to take out the old TV to install the satelite system. He told Joe that the one on the roof was outdated, and he could spend a lot of money trying to fix it. The service man from 'All Around Mobile Service' from Pahrump talked Joe into buying a new one. When we purchased our Newmar, it had a satellite system on the roof, but it has not been working. The first thing we had them do was to install a new satellite system on our motor home.
